If it is driven by that same solid Rockstar design we all have come to know, then you could slap any title name on it and it's a safe bet it will sell well just on merit alone.
But Max Payne 3 is going to, unfortunately, end up looking like a cash-in, no matter what. It's like Rockstar said to themselves "We want to go a different direction (aka take a risk) than Remedy would have, but we're only going to keeping the main character, the title name, and iteration. Basically, we're going to market it as a Max Payne sequel, but it won't really be a Max Payne sequel, per se. An alternate universe... or divergence, if you will..."
I'm of the opinion that any true Max Payne fan, at this point, would agree they're trying to sell us a different Max Payne than we are expecting.
This is pretty much what Ubisoft Montreal did with Far Cry 2 when they inherited it.
I'm going to approach this game as if it were fan fiction. It's just hard to see it as anything but Max Payne canon.
At least this way MP3 can impress me on its own merit, and I can ignore the voice inside my head asking "Does this live up to Max Payne standards?"While I have faith that this title will ultimately be an interesting one, I cannot help but think Rockstar should have been brave enough to give it a different title.
